Phone number ☎️ 01245820712 👆 is reported as a persistent scam targeting mainly elderly individuals with fraudulent claims about TV or home appliance insurance. The callers, often using similar local numbers, falsely assert outstanding payments or offer misleading "discounted" renewals on non-existent policies. They pressure recipients for personal and financial details, sometimes citing outdated addresses, and threaten legal action. Many recognise the calls as attempts to frighten people into paying fictitious debts. It is strongly advised not to engage or provide any information, to block the numbers, and report them to the Telephone Preference Service and your phone provider. Genuine organisations will never pressure or demand immediate payment without proper verification. Vigilance and caution are essential to avoid falling victim to this ongoing scam.

1 yearThis number keeps calling me nearly daily, always just saying "Hello Hello" when I answer. Seems like it’s one of those appliance scams coming from India. Really annoying!India1 yearGot a call earlier, my wife picked up. Some bloke kept rambling about insurance needing to be renewed and some kind of two year free deal... I think he even talked about a TV at some point. My missus was well confused and just told him to send the paperwork before hanging up. We don’t have any insurance with anyone, and we haven’t bought anything in the last two years. Definitely a complete con!!!1 yearGot a call claiming to be from Sky TV insurance saying my policy wasn’t active anymore. Total scam, trying to trick you into thinking your cover ended. Watch out for that one!Sky TV1 yearSome bloke rang saying he was with "Home Care Services", but he had an old address for me from years ago. Ended the call pretty quick.Home Care Services1 yearThey rang me up 4 times all on the same day. I just ignored all of them.1 yearWARNING! My elderly mum got a call saying she owed £1000 for a TV and they were happy if she paid £400 straight away. They told her to grab her card, which set off alarm bells. She asked them to ring me instead but they refused. There has to be a way for phone companies to block numbers like this once they’re reported as scams. It’s just not right!1 yearGot a call from 01245820719 claiming I’d signed up back in February 2023 and that the first two years were free, but now I could get 50% off for the next three years, with a charge of £199 on my debit card. I asked them to explain what info they had about me under GDPR, requested all my data to be erased, and wanted to talk to a manager. When the manager (a bloke) came on, I repeated my demand for them to delete everything since I was certain I never signed up and thought it was a scam. Right after I said that, they just hung up. Definitely a scam - don’t give them any details!1 yearJust got a call and, yep, another bloody scammer trying it on!1 yearI got a call from a man with an Asian accent who already knew my name and where I live. He claimed I had a service contract for my TV and said I owed £399 as the last payment. Funny thing is, he couldn’t say where I bought the TV or what brand it was. To my knowledge, I never agreed to anything like that. He just kept going over the same lines again and again. He warned me that if I didn’t pay right away, the cost would go up. Strangely, they even got hold of me through my work phone number.1 yearGot a call yesterday from a number almost the same as one I just got today, just one number off. They said something about Sky Insurance, but I didn't bother staying on the line and just hung up.Sky Insurance1 yearGot a voicemail on my home phone from someone whose name I couldn't make out at all. There was loads of noise in the background. No way I’m ringing them back.1 yearThey rang me up asking for my husband, but he passed away 13 years ago. Quite shocking to get that call out of the blue.1 yearI didn't pick up and the call just ended. They didn't bother to leave a message either. This also happened the day before.1 yearGot called three times today by some lot pretending to be from a home insurance company. They kept insisting we had a policy with them, which we don’t, with anyone! Proper scam if you ask me. Ended up blocking the number.1 yearPicked up the phone and it was just another one of those scams.1 yearScam number1 yearGot a call from someone saying it was about some home care contract I had no clue about. Then they tried to get my bank card details, so I just ended the call and blocked their number right away.1 yearAS SOON AS I TOLD THEM I WASN'T INTERESTED, THEY JUST CUT THE CALL OFF WITH NO WARNING.1 yearGot a call from someone claiming to be from Elia Home Care, asking for Mr K. She said he owed them money or something. I told her straight up, "You lot sound like one of those scammers, aren’t you?" She kept going on for a good five minutes, really pushy. Watch out, these dodgy calls are everywhere!KElia Home Care Services1 yearGot a call from 01245820712 claiming to be some home appliance service. They told me they’re about to take £399.98 from my account, saying I’d signed up last year for free TV and tech insurance. Apparently, the first two years are free, then suddenly you owe £399.98. They then offered to shake it down to £199 for two years or cancel it for £149.99. I said no to everything and immediately cancelled my cards and alerted the bank. Honestly, it felt like a total scam trying to scare you into paying.1 yearThis number keeps ringing up my elderly mate, trying to freak him out about some home appliance insurance they claim his late wife arranged back in 2022. Thing is, she passed away in 2015! Thankfully, since he has dementia, any payments have to be handled by me. The moment I mentioned the dates didn’t match, they just cut the call straight away.1 yearGot a call from some homecare people claiming I owe £295 on a policy for a telly I’ve never had. They started threatening court action! I hung up, called them straight back, and now they just won’t stop ringing me.1 yearI think it's probably a scam. I've noticed lots of similar numbers coming from that area code recently, so I went ahead and blocked it and reported it.1 yearThis is a total scam! I also got calls from 01245 820711.
